This is the image that i chose to post to my Blog. It is a surrealistic picture of Tj. I blended a lot of other photos in to make it look like a wintery dream sequence. The other photos blend in the sides, making Tj stand out in the middle of the photo as the focal point. I also had multiple Adjustment layers that gave the photo a much more cool feeling.

Filters

This is the image that i edited with photoshop filters. I used 2 artistic filters to show the contrast. The Filters make Tj stand out as the focal point while the backround appears more out of focus, making the focal point even more powerful.

Composition

This is the picture that i chose to pick for my blog. It is a composition of two pictures, one of alex and another of a peaceful sunset. I used a mask on one of them to make him appear like he was coming out of the backround. I also used the gradient tool to make him slightly more transpartent, so you could see the backround photo through him.

Studio Portrait assignment

This is my 2nd picture that i have uploaded. It is a picture of Alex. I took this picture during our Studio lighting day. The lighting is backlighting, and the light was placed behind him when the picture was taken. The lighting caused Alex to be silouetted against the backround, giving him a interesting and mysterious look

Natural Portrait

This is my first natural photo post. This is a picture of Tj that i took in the epac hallway. There was a lot of natural lighting in the hall at the time, and it hilighted Tj's face. Tj had a solem expression on his face at the time, that give the portrait a nice calming feel

This is my first photo post. This was a picture of my cat in which I adjusted it and added a border. The adjustment I made were that I increased the brightness of the picture as a whole. I also made the cat in color and the rest of the photo in black and white, so that the cat would stand out more. Finally, i added a border around the picture.

Aritst Statement

The pictures that I take are from a variety of different places. I try to take pictures of things from my everyday life. My art has no single theme behind it as I take pictures of a wide range of things. I take great pride in the pictures I take, and every one has a single meaning.
